As universities cut courses, spending on consultants and contractors nears $2b Consultancies have been accused of infiltrating universities and wasting scarce public funds on questionable advice about cutting courses and jobs.

Australia's universities are spending $1.8 billion a year on external consultants and contractors, while slashing courses and jobs, with students, staff and taxpayers left shortchanged.
Watch ABC Four Corners tonight.

I probably should not have even vented this entire thread, but I am extremely concerned about the state of #HigherEd in the United States, the ability of scientific innovation to occur in the current climate, and the attention of anyone when it is pulled in so many directions.

When applying for colleges, I got accepted into Spelman but decided to stay close to home, becoming a student at the University of Maryland-College Park. I have no regrets about being a Terp, but every now and then I wonder how my life would've been different had I gone to Spelman. #HigherEd #HBCUs

2025 English Social Mobility Index: #highered #academicsky

Despite the progress that has been made in widening access to higher education over the last fifteen years, long-standing inequalities both in access and outcomes persist for many disadvantaged learners. Institutions need to do more, both individually and collectively, to close the access and outcome gaps for these learners, and I hope that LSBU’s Social Mobility Index continues to provide a helpful tool for universities to understand the efficacy of their approaches to supporting disadvantaged students.

The classic "Do as I say, not as I do" is a major red flag. A perfect example is senior leaders in higher ed sending an inaccessible email to demand that staff create accessible digital materials! ✉️🤦‍♂️ #HigherEd #Accessibility

Florida bans sociology from core curriculum at state universities For years, Republican lawmakers and education leaders have argued that sociology — especially high-enrollment introductory courses — has been overtaken by progressive ideology

“Florida’s public universities will no longer allow a standalone introductory sociology course to count toward general-education requirements…a sweeping, systemwide ban that reflects years of Republican criticism of the discipline.” @miamiherald.com #highered

After I graduated frm A&M, I'd return to present, particularly in classes taught by my fave profs. Some were characters: in class, Bart enjoyed regaling all with his latest travels.
